Foundation School

Nursery to Class II

KWS champions the mantra Play, Play, Play for early learners. Our Early Years Programme, powered by ECCE and enriched by IEYC, focuses on primary and specialized areas, in line with the National Curriculum Framework.

Early Years Programme, Lower Foundation (Nursery to KG)

Leveraging discussions, music, art and storytelling, our approach fosters dynamic, play-based learning. Graduates from this stage emerge as articulate, curious individuals, ready for advanced learning phases.

Our Pre-Primary Pillars

The three ideas that shape every day in the early years at KWS.

Nature and Nurture

Nature and Nurture

Children learn outdoors as much as indoors — tending plants, watching seasons change, and caring for the spaces they share. Warm, responsive adults make the classroom feel as safe as home.

Play and Participation

Play and Participation

Play is the work of the early years. Through sand and water, blocks, role play and group games, children negotiate, take turns, and discover that their voice matters in a room full of others.

Curiosity and Creativity

Curiosity and Creativity

Questions are welcomed before answers are taught. Open-ended materials, stories and studio time let every child follow a wondering wherever it leads, and express what they find in their own way.

Upper Foundation Programme (Grades 1 to 2)

The Upper Foundation in KWS fosters an immersive learning experience through hands-on exploration. The curriculum centers on holistic language development, covering listening, speaking, reading and writing. Our mathematics module uses the CPA method, ensuring comprehensive understanding.

Additionally, we emphasize arts and physical education, honing learners' creativity and physical capabilities, equipping them for their future learning journey.

Learning Designed for Discovery

Balanced Literacy

Balanced Literacy

At its heart, Balanced Literacy recognizes that the true purpose of language is to communicate ideas freely, express oneself with confidence, and connect meaningfully with others. Through read-alouds, shared reading, guided instruction, and independent practice children learn to think deeply, speak clearly and confidently, read with understanding, and write while discovering the joy of meaningful expressions.

Numeracy

Numeracy

At Khaitan, children build a real sense of numbers through exploration, play, and discovery. They count, sort, compare, and measure using objects from everyday life, making math a part of what they see and do. Gradually, ideas take shape; from concrete experiences to pictures and symbols; helping every child understand, not memorise, and see math as something they can enjoy and use with confidence.

The World Around Us

The World Around Us

Children make sense of the world by looking closely at their own — the people, places, seasons and living things they meet every day. Through observation, questions, walks and hands-on exploration, they begin to notice patterns, care for their surroundings, and see themselves as part of a wider community.
